President Donald Trump announced Sunday the formation of a federal “Super Intelligence Force” to coordinate government policy on artificial intelligence and promote continued U.S. leadership in the technology.

Trump said Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton will lead the task force. Federal Trade Commission Chair Andrew Ferguson, Pentagon technology official Emil Michael and Office of Personnel Management Director Scott Kupor will also serve in leadership roles, reporting to Trump and White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles.

The group will consult consumers, public-interest and religious organizations, infrastructure providers and technology companies. According to reports citing the task force’s charter, it must produce a report within 120 days addressing AI’s risks and opportunities, potential responses to AI-enabled threats, and ways to avoid regulations that could restrict innovation and competition.

The announcement followed a White House meeting with executives from major technology companies. At a White House lunch on artificial intelligence, CNBC reported that Apple was notably absent, although neither Apple nor the White House explained why.

At the meeting, participating companies signed a voluntary safety accord committing them to four levels of controls and oversight, including internal evaluations, outside audits and reviews by company boards. They also agreed to meet regularly to develop safety standards and best practices. Trump described the commitments as “morally binding” and emphasized industry self-policing.

The administration has directed the federal government to use “super intelligence” in place of “artificial intelligence.”

WHAT THE EDITOR DID

The second model checked the writer's draft against the same sources and changed it before publication. Struck words were in the draft; underlined words are its corrections.

WHAT IT FLAGGED editor revise: The story needs the White House meeting/Apple absence paragraph corrected to match the narrower sourcing. - "The announcement followed a White House meeting with executives from major technology companies, including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Nvidia and Elon Musk’s SpaceXAI.": The sources say Trump met with leaders of top AI firms and that CNBC described a broader White House lunch, but the story’s combined phrasing overstates the supported company list for the specific meeting tied to the accord. - "Apple was notably absent, although neither Apple nor the White House explained why.": CNBC reports Apple was absent from Trump’s AI lunch, but the sources do not support that Apple was absent from the specific White House meeting described in the preceding sentence with this exact participant list.
